Susanna "Mini" Andén (born 7 June 1978) is a Stockholm girl who became a top model, actress, one-time tv host, and producer. She began modelling early, at age 10, and was signed by Elite at age 15.

Since then, Mini has become one of the top models in the business. She remains signed to Elite, as well as to several other agencies.

Among Mini's covers are Vogue, Arena, Marie Claire, Cosomopolitan and ELLE. Some of the designers she's worked with are Tom Ford, Donna Karan, and Calvin Klein.

One of Mini's high profile campaigns was as the face of Giorgio Armani's perfume Armani Code for Women.

She participated in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 2003 and has been in the catalog several times.

Along with her fashion success, Mini has become a talented actress. Her film roles include "Tropic Thunder" (2008), "The Mechanic" (2011) and "Ocean's Twelve" (2004).

Mini also hosted the first season of "Sweden's Next Top Model" in 2005. She has had numerous roles on television series since then, including "Bones," "Chuck" and "CSI: Miami." Mini had a recurring role on "Chuck" as Carina Miller.

Mini is a dog lover and, along with husband Taber Schroeder (also a model) has seven of them. The two met while filming an advertisement and married on August 25, 2001. Mini gave birth to a son named Felix Schroeder on May 2013 and has kept a low professional profile since then.

Mini is an expert ice skater, having trained in it all her life up to age 18. Her nickname "Mini" comes from what her family called her when she was just a baby.

We only wish that Mini would act more so that we can see more of her on the small screen!
